I could not disagree with you more.
This is a clear case of Ann Arbor Schools displaying and promoting racism.
How about reflecting on the look on non-black kid’s faces displaying a sense of injustice?
How about reflecting on the empty expression of non-black children being told skin color does not matter except if you are of “color”?
This is just one clear example and is just the tip of the iceburg. Do you think if the “nuanced” educators can openly run this type of segregation and favortism that it stops at field trips.
And this BS has been a part of AAPS for years. It is part of the deeply cultural process of chosen demographic groups by color or gender.
No matter how this is described using educational buzzwords, it is BS.
The lesson for today is: Life isn't fair. Segregation is good in education if the goal is to maximize everyone's achievement, rather than the envy-driven goal of producing equal results. Segregate the dumb, average, smart, the girls/boys, the disruptors from the well behaved, and everyone's education can be tailored to not waste their time or taxpayer resources. The leftist goal of desegregation was to produce equal outcomes in the name of envy, not providing equal opportunities so children could develop into the best they could be.
